It started out with just a headcold, way back the end of Jan. turned into a chest cold as well, I do have asthma and take both orange and blue puffer, I have been taking them regularly for 2.5 months now, I did go to emerg back April 5th he gave me antibiotics for 10 days I did start to feel better but then about a week later I was worse again and still am, I did go to ermeg last wee again because I have missed 5 weeks of work now and I cant function, I sleep day and night its crazy sleeping 12 hours through night then 2 hour naps during day here and there and still cant function.I also get hard lumps under jaw area and my neck glands feel swollen, i have been having a hoarse voice for 4 weeks now the last week i have had pretty much no voice, burning in chest, chest feels congested but no cough

OK--here are my thoughts. First off, even with the negative mono screen, you may have elevated EBV titers and so are actually suffering from mono and that can take up to six weeks to resolve. That said, you may have low thyroid despite the lab results if your TSH was 3.0 or higher. Finally, I would also consider Lyme disease even if you don't recally a tick bite, so I would screen you for that, too.

I will tell you that...the things you have to go through to be an Expert are quite rigorous.
